This IDW Leonardo TMNT figure has a jacked up pair of hands!?

[@jrico247]

I mean it makes sense to get the best grip

[@toomuchnewtoys]

I have no idea about such things in reality, but I could see how that would work better

[@dangusmomangus3003]

Tmnt fans: oh no what they do to his haaaands Martial arts fans: finally... a worthy opponent.

[@toomuchnewtoys]

This has been the case exactly lol

[@andyplushfilmsproductions3712]

Those hands hold the swords at an angle

[@toomuchnewtoys]

I've since learned in the sword world the grip is used and makes sense. So that is pretty neat. On the figure they are had to get the swords in

[@brenpgrace]

I can’t wait to get these, watch out for the scabbards on his back. I hear his scabbards break easily.

[@toomuchnewtoys]

Thanks for the heads up. So far I have the black and white ones. Or grey I guess. Seemed okay so far

[@yoda5436]

really excited to get those black n white ones, haven't seen any in black n white that have the individually colored masks, it's a cool combo tho (n as long as the alternate hand sculpts are fine, that one being a little funky doesn't bother me much)

[@toomuchnewtoys]

It is nice to have a splash of color. That is a fun idea for black and white

[@gabrielpinto3054]

Lol at frist i wasnt really feeln them but im debate but that shredder though omg ❤

[@toomuchnewtoys]

I cant wait for the shredder, just around the corner!

[@gabrielpinto3054]

@@toomuchnewtoys like how close to the corner? Lol 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥

[@toomuchnewtoys]

@@gabrielpinto3054 amazon has him at 11/10

[@opturtlegaming8543]

If you take it to realism, then thumb in the middle would be a preferred grip with a weapon with as much precision as a katanna.

[@toomuchnewtoys]

I guess that makes sense. Trying that grip myself seems goofy but I don't know anything lol

[@ToyAttics]

Oh

[@toomuchnewtoys]

its actually not so bad at all, kinda interesting even

[@ToyAttics]

@@toomuchnewtoys yea?

[@toomuchnewtoys]

@@ToyAttics yeah these turtles have more space in their hands so putting a thumb in the middle isn't so weird. It is weird to get used to but the more you look at it I think its kinda neat they did it this way. And his other hands are normal

[@ToyAttics]

@@toomuchnewtoys mine are in the mail! Can’t wait to get them!

[@noahcove79]

Going to be honest I don't really see an issue

[@toomuchnewtoys]

Fair. To some folks it's pretty jawing, but other folks. Especially ones who have some sword experience, don't think it jarring at all

[@smeagolalltheway]

The index finger is meant to be on top of the tsuba...... its a classic IDW Nardo pose

[@toomuchnewtoys]

The tsuba?

[@smeagolalltheway]

@@toomuchnewtoys hand gaurd lol

[@toomuchnewtoys]

@@smeagolalltheway ah that makes sense

[@smeagolalltheway]

@toomuchnewtoys i was confused at first as well. Then I noticed the hook of the index finger and it sets the katana at an angle in his hand naturally
